I had a great time playing this! The upgrades are really varied and make for super fun gameplay. I wish there were hearts that dropped or something else to heal once in a while
Love it!

I liked the concept for this and the presentation is really good.
The difficulty of the game made it tricky to really get into. Because Jelly is so bad at killing enemies, there seems to be more and more of them with every second, until there's basically no open spaces for me to jump to anymore. I'm sure that it could be done if you're very good, but the lack of progress I was making was pretty discouraging for the most part. If Jelly could deal with enemies a bit fast (the 50% damage bump helps, but not enough), it might have worked. I also would have liked to see more upgrades for Peanut, other than the extra jump (if there were some of those, I never got them), to make survival a bit more feasible.
Overall, I think this is a pretty polished game (except for one or two small bugs), and it looks quite good as well in the sort of arcade aesthetic.

V.I.C.I.Good job!
Loved visual part and sounds. Portals look great.
As for gameplay, it is bit monotonous cause you have not so much options to move around (so you are always jumping between a couple of platforms). Also it was pretty hard to avoid increasing amount of enemies. It takes really long time for Jelly to deal with a single enemy

SnAIkeSI always wondered what it felt like to be the subject of an escort mission, it turns uselessly flailing about trying to survive while someone else does all the work is really fun. Thanks Jelly!

AI Love YouSimple and optically pleasing, such a cute Idea with Peanut and Jelly! :>
The AI could be a little more responsive and the background is a little too "wobbly" for me, but a good way to ramp up the action after all!
Good job! :)

H-AI plush sharks & co.- good squash/stretch/animations
- consistent graphics
- understandable game-play loop
- Makes me think of super crate box
- could use a bit bigger level (more places to move to/from)
- I couldn’t find an upgrade path that got upgrades fast enough to keep up with the number of enemies scaling
- the ‘upgrade’ point pickups could be more eye catching, I didn’t realized I needed to pick them up (or even that they were there) at first.

Wowie 4 - Hunt for the MacGuffinThis game looks nice, but I don't really like the game design and its mechanic. The game really difficult and really not assisting. The way the tracking weapon can miss the target at point blank is really unsatisfying to see. The player character's survivability is pretty low, and the upgrade sometimes has duplicated upgrades and the upgrade that has no additional effect if the player already has is shown in the upgrade. The enemy spawning near the player is really unpleasant. The frozen enemy can still do damage to the player.
The game should be made easy If the game is not going to have difficulties selection. This game isn't just too difficult for me, but I also don't find it fun by how the game was designed.
However, the game looks good, the player movement is ok, visual and sound is all good.

Chess MasterThanks for the review! I spent a lot of time fiddling with the shots missing and I could never seen to get it right which really sucked and I agree on most of your points and wanted to fix them but there’s just not enough time.
Also I’m not sure what you mean by the player not getting an additional effect from duplicates because they do? Do you have more of a description for what happened there?
I did want to add difficulty settings but didn’t have the time so I made it like this because the last similar game to this I made everyone said it was boring because it started too slow, but I guess I went too much in the other direction this time.
Amazing and addicting game! After like 30 minutes I still couldn't pass the first level, but it's still super fun! Art and music are great :)

Robo Dance SquadI like this game a lot! The difficulty becomes a problem pretty quickly, but it keeps you on your toes and the gameplay is exciting and fun! Keep up the good work!

Artificial EscapeI really like this game! My only complaint is that it's pretty hard. But I love how it fits the theme perfectly, but expands on it! Great job

Solve The CaseVery nice game. Although, it would've been nice if Jelly would shoot faster.
